Wish vs Plan

It takes as much energy to wish as it does to plan. - Eleanor Roosevelt

I have to completely agree with Eleanor Roosevelt here. For example, I have want to switch up our apartment for months now! Months!! So I have already stressed about how big of a job it was going to be. I have planned out most of the details in my head. I made the choice of not doing anything until I can move everything because I was going to be doing this plan. It took all my energy as it was........ 

But now that I actually can move things and get things moving... it's a huge daunting task that my body is yelling at me for. I come home from a stressful day at work exhausted and not wanting to even do the simple everyday chores let alone this huge task of cleaning the closets out, moving furniture, organizing craft stuff and storage crap, and setting up my desk. No!! It's too much!! 


But if I had planned this out instead of just wishing in my head, I could have had this whole project done by now! It could have already been broken up into pieces and I could have had certain pieces done before moving furniture day. Why oh why didn't I think of that! 

I know.... Because though wishing takes as much energy as planning, wishing is much more fun because it doesn't mean you need to take action afterwards. It's still in the "Wouldn't it be nice.." Bank requiring no effort.

So on I move from our bedroom to the now recreational room's closet that is jammed with crap all because I chose to wish instead of plan............. :(
